Napoleon's Dog
Original
query
Barely
has the electronic ink dried on our request for information
on Napoleon's dog and Mike has come up with a possible answer
to the Master's Degree question that Chuck has been pondering
on.
"I
wonder if the examiners really meant Josephine's dog, which
was a pug (if memory serves) called Fortune.
"Napoleon
hated the animal (a feeling which was mutual) and was therefore
quite pleased when his chef's big dog at Malmaison killed
the unfortunate beast in a fight.
"Hope
this is useful."
Well,
Mike, you have certainly saved us from having to dig through
the old books again and we'll get a message off to Chuck.
Thanks
for the help.
